Pros
Verizon is a good place to work. They have a lot of employees and the on the job training is probably some of the best there is. Lots of knowledgable people to learn from in all facets of business and business operations. Their benefits are second to none!
Cons
Verizon since 2006 has been laying off people virtually every time payday rolls around. Some layoffs are huge and you never know if you will be the next one to go. Verizon is trying to hire younger employees so as to cut their payroll cost and hopefully infuse the company with new creative ideas. They are laying off all their older workers with the knowledge and experience that built the company. If you are over 40 you can expect you will be on the chopping block soon!
